Lord Capulet tells Paris that he will let him marry Juliet, only if she agrees. Juliet is allowed to have a say in who she wishes to marry, but now that she is in love with Romeo, it must be kept

Juliet's marriage to Paris was arranged and not a result of true love. Paris confessed his love to her parents, who then shared that information with her. When they told her she didn't like it. Juliet told Capulet she didn't want to marry Paris, but Capulet told her that if she doesn't marry Paris her family will disown her. In act 4 Capulet tells Juliet "...get thee to the church o' Thursday, or never after look me in the face...". Juliet was being forced to get married. The Capulet's started planning the wedding despite how Juliet felt. As result Juliet faked her death, which eventually lead to her

When Lord Capulet first finds out that Juliet doesn't want to marry Paris, he is frazzled. He tells Lady Capulet,”... Doth she not count her blest... So worthy a gentleman to be her bride?”(3.5.143-145). Lord Capulet is confused on why she would not want to marry this man that

Furthermore, Lady Capulet's misguided support for the hostile actions of her husband, Lord Capulet, contributes to the tragic outcome of the book. After Tybalt's death, Lady Capulet supports her husband's decision to force Juliet into marrying Paris as a way to seek revenge. In Act 3, Scene 5, Lady Capulet tells Juliet, "Talk not to me, for I'll not speak a word. Do as thou wilt, for I have done with thee" (pg.214-215). This abandonment of Juliet in her time of need further separates her and pushes her towards harsh measures to escape the forced

Lord Capulet told Juliet that if she didn’t marry Paris that he would disown her and make her live on the streets to fend for herself and because Lord Capulet was so overbearing, she was nervous and didn’t say anything of being with

When that is not what she wanted to do or who she wanted to marry because at the moment she was in love with Romeo and was not going to marry anybody just because her mother said so. She did not want anybody else except for Romeo. So, Lady Capulet told Capulet and he came in and started yelling at Juliet. Just because she did not want to get into marriage unless it was with Romeo but they did not know that. So Juliet cried and cried and finally acted like everything was ok and so she went and told Capulet she was ok and she wanted to get married and apologized to Lady Capulet. But on the inside she still did not want to get married. So, that night in her bedroom she drank poison. The next morning was found by the nurse in her bed dead all because Capulet and Lady Capulet were trying to force marriage onto her but she only wanted Romeo. This is what she was saying “ Marry, that ‘marry’ is the very theme I came to talk of.” DBQ; Lady Capulet, Document B. Also, she Lady Capulet said “ Well, think of marriage now; younger than you” DBQ; Lady Capulet, Document

Lady Capulet shows that she no longer cares about Juliet and basically abandons Juliet for her husband, pushing Juliet into isolation. However back in that era, it was a difficult time to be a woman and men had a lot of power over woman.

In Act 3 Scene 5 Lady Capulet is very fickle in making her decision to stand up for Juliet when she decides to go against her father’s orders and not marry Paris. This lack of the ability to stand up for her own daughter just emphasises the distance between Lady Capulet and Juliet as Mother and Daughter.

Juliet not knowing what to do tells her parents that she will not marry Paris causing a fight between them leading Lord Capulet in act three, scene five to say to her, “ How, how, how, how, choplogic? What is this? “Proud”-and “I thank you”-and “ I thank you not” - And yet “not proud”? Mistress minion you, Thank me not thankings, nor proud me no prouds, But fettle your fine joints ’gainst Thursday next To go with Paris to Saint Peter’s Church, Or I will drag thee on a hurdle thither. Out, you green-sickness carrion!

Furthermore, as the play begins to unfold, Lord Capulet undergoes a dramatic shift in behavior. When Juliet refuses to marry Paris, her father becomes outraged. Lord Capulet furiously reprimands Juliet:

After three hours they fall in love, so they try and make some time to see each other. “Indeed, my child, at Saint Peter’s Church early Thursday morning, the gallant, young, and noble gentleman Count Paris will happily make you a joyful bride. ”(act 3 scene 5). By using this quote, it shows that Lady Capulet is still trying to force Juliet to marry Prince Paris. And because of this the Capulet’s go behind Juliet’s back and arrange a wedding for her and Prince Paris.

Capulet's wife says, “To put thee from thy heariness, hath sorted out a sudden day of joy/ that than expects not”. This could be responsible for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet because they are young and in love and have to do everything secretly because of the feud. Juliet cannot tell her father she is married to Romeo, so she has to try to avoid the wedding using the friar’s complete

Juliet’s parents’ lack of knowledge of their daughter’s love life contributes to her death. In Act 3 Scene 5 Lady Capulet walks in on Juliet crying and assumes the tears are for her deceased cousin Tybalt. Shakespeare uses dramatic irony while Lady Capulet and Juliet speak about Romeo. Juliet says to her mother “Indeed, I shall never be satisfied / With Romeo, till I behold him –dead” The reader knows, while Lady Capulet is unaware, that Juliet is speaking about him in a loving way rather than wishing him dead. Also in this scene Lady and Lord Capulet tell Juliet that they have arranged for her to marry Paris. When Juliet refuses her father yells at her and accuses her of being ungrateful. The Capulets are not aware that Juliet is already married therefore are not understanding of her wishes to

This shows that Juliet is desperately trying to tell her father what she wants but men didn't really care about women's opinions. Lord Capulet replies with more threats and saying that if Juliet doesn't go to marry Paris next Thursday he will disown her.

After hearing about Romeo's banishment, Juliet becomes distressed, and locks herself in her room. Old Capulet converses with Paris about her change in heart, and converses with him about the details of the wedding. However, once Capulet tells Juliet about the upcoming wedding, Juliet refuses to marry Paris, causing Capulet
